A Columbia University study has linked modern sightings of the Loch Ness Monster to the 1933 King Kong movie. One of the earliest known sightings took place in 1933 when King Kong was playing in theaters across the United Kingdom.
 

The Columbia University study has suggested that some of the prehistoric denizens featured in King Kong, such as a large long-necked humpback creature, may have been the catalyst that triggered the modern Loch Ness Monster phenomenon.

 

The theory is based on the fact that one of the earliest known modern sighting of the monster took place in 1933 at a time when King Kong was playing in theaters across the United Kingdom.

 

The encounter was reported by Londoner George Spicer who, along with his wife, claimed to have witnessed a long-necked plesiosaur-like creature not dissimilar to the one in the movie crossing the road in front of their car. He described it at the time as “a most extraordinary form of animal.”

 

Author Daniel Loxton believes that their sighting matches perfectly with the creature in King Kong.
